Summer Vegetable Pappardelle

As a big fan of all types of noodles, this recipe is right up my ally. It calls for the delicious Lemon Pepper Pappardelle noodles from Trader Joe’s which is truly a match made in heaven. Tangy zip from them lemon with a powerful spice from pepper! Yasssss!!!

What I love most is that although pasta can be so filling, the fresh summer vegetables and citrus flavoring make this dish delicious and light.

ingredients:

1 package Trader Joe’s Lemon Pepper Pappardelle pasta

1 cup chopped broccoli

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup Chicken Stock

3/4 cup yellow squash, sliced and halved

1/2 Vidalia onion, minced

3 garlic cloves, minced

Olive Oil

Salt and Pepper

1/4 cup goat cheese

directions:

1.) Cook noodles according to package directions.

2.) In a separate sauté pan, heat olive oil and sweat onions and garlic for 3-4 minutes. Add broccoli, squash and chicken stock and sauté for another 3-4 minutes. Finally add the tomatoes, salt and pepper and cook until tomatoes are soft. (If liquid has cooked down significantly, add another cup of stock with tomatoes.)
